adversity和distress区别?见句1 comforting和consoling的区别?见句2

这些都是近义词,近义词真的不容易区别

adversity 的定义是 difficulties; misfortune

distress 的定义是 extreme anxiety, sorrow, or pain

前者意味着“挫折”, 后者表示因“挫折”或“不幸”而有的“感受”。

例句:

Never give in to adversity. It may cuase you distress, but you must persevere.

comforting 的定义是 giving consolation for grief or anxiety; soothing

consoling 的定义是 comforting (someone) at a time of grief or misfortune.

也就是说,两者的区别非常细微,但 consoling 比 comforting 更适用于 time of grief or misfortune (在对方的灾难和不幸的处境中)
